A ticket home for 12,000.

Lebanon, 2006. When a conflict threatened the security of 12,000 Canadians, SkyLink got the call. The government of Canada needed their citizens evacuated immediately. It was the largest scale evacuation in Canadian history. Within six hours our planes were in the air and all were on their way home, safely and securely.
